Women Unscripted

Swedish show jumper Stephanie Holmén, 26, has recently broken into the 5 star ranks and for the past four years she has been based in the south of Sweden at Grevlunda Stables with European Champion and double Olympic silver medalist Peder Fredericson and his wife Lisen. Earlier this year Stephanie broke out on the World Cup circuit with a win in Zurich riding Flips Little Sparrow, a ride she took over from Pederson last summer.  The pair have hit it off and are now competing consistently at 4 and 5 star level. Stephanie also has three other five star partners and is aiming for a place on the Nations Cup team and beyond. Before coming to Grevlunda, Stephanie trained with Ann-Catrin Carlsson, Training Manager at the famous Flyinge Stud, whom she credits with helping her develop confidence and learn mental skills to develop as a competitor.  Since working with Pederson, Stephanie says she has learned to be very precise in her riding. While she has always had a talent and enjoyed riding the young horses, Stephanie is now gaining valuable mileage on the experienced horses at all levels and she is proving herself at the top level of the sport with the goal of catching the selector’s eye. Chris Stafford spoke to Stephanie shortly after the World Cup qualifier at Gothenburg in Sweden.

On this month’s episode Elizabeth Emery talks to two influencers in the world of women's cycling; Diane Jenks and Anne-Marije Rook. For close to eight years Diane has hosted a weekly radio show, Outspoken Cyclist, which is also available as a podcast. She talks with notables from the wide range of cycling including industry, advocacy, and the cycling community of manufacturers, bicycle builders, riders, trainers, coaches, and legislators. Diane also has 36 years of bicycle shop experience so talks about fit, performance, and training. She talks about podcasting, her perspective on cycling after being involved for so long, and women in cycling. Dutch born Anne-Marije Rook is a multilingual journalist currently living in Seattle, Washington who has worked in media for well over a decade from print, radio, online, and photojournalism. Currently she works as the editor of Ella CyclingTips, where she covers the racing, equity in the sport, and tech. Anne is enthusiastically passionate about cycling—all kinds of cycling—which you will definitely hear in the conversation.  She’s also an active transportation advocate, an elite bike racer, as well as cycling coach and mentor. To encourage more people to get out on a bike, Anne does her best to ride with everyone who asks.

For Gabbi Hall, host of The Inside Line, going to an Olympics was a life-long dream and a learning experience.  It’s one thing to watch the Olympic Winter Games on TV and soak in the excitement, and quite another to be on the ground helping broadcast it to the world while brushing elbows with newly crowned gold medalists.  In this week’s episode, the tables are turned as WiSP Sports CEO Chris Stafford interviews Gabbi about the behind-the-scenes actions in South Korea, diving into her personal highlights from the assignment as well as what makes an Olympic Games so unique for athletes and journalists alike.

Award winning sports journalist Evelyn Watta began her career as a television intern in her home country of Kenya. She climbed the ladder in a world of male editors proving herself time and again while setting an example for other women where few opportunities existed. Evelyn overcame sexism and broke the glass ceiling more than once. From intern to editor she gained recognition in TV and print and taught herself to be an all-in-one photo-journalist producing, presenting and filming coverage of major sports events. In 2008 Evelyn was recognized as the first broadcast journalist to offer real-time video coverage to and in Kenya while reporting from the Beijing Olympic Games. Four years later she was to be awarded a media honor for exemplary coverage of the London Olympic Games. And in 2014 Evelyn was named the CNN Africa Sports Journalist of the Year. Beyond the sports desk, Evelyn has led and contributed to numerous mentorship programs for journalists around the world as a way to encourage and support young women into the profession and show what is possible. She has served on media committees for National Olympic Committees and National Sports Federations. In 2007 Evelyn became the first African woman, and youngest ever executive committee member of the International Sports Press Association. Having served as Secretary General of AIPS from 2014-2016, she is currently serving as the Vice President and Coordinator of the Women Commission. Chris Stafford caught up with Evelyn at the Olympic Channel in Madrid, where she is working as a Sports Producer.
